Written in my Dreams by W. C. Williams
“As Is
you’re bearing
a common
Truth
Commonly known
as desire
No need
to dress
it up
as beauty
No need
to distort
what’s not
standard
to be
understandable.
Pick your
nose
eyes ears
tongue
sex and
brain
to show
the populace
Take your
chances
on
your accuracy
Listen to
yourself
talk to
yourself
and others
will also
gladly
relieved
of the burden—
their own
thought
and grief.
What began
as desire
will end
wiser”
